Extracellular membrane vesicles in the three domains of life and beyond
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2018 Cells from all three domains of life, Archaea, Bacteria and Eukarya, produce extracellular vesicles (EVs) which are sometimes associated with filamentous structures known as nanopods or nanotubes.

PICALM::MLLT10 translocated leukemia
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This comprehensive review of PICALM::MLLT10 translocated acute leukemia provides an in‐depth review of the structure and function of CALM, AF10, and the fusion oncoprotein (1). The multifaceted molecular mechanisms of oncogenesis, including nucleocytoplasmic shuttling (2), epigenetic modifications (3), and disruption of endocytosis (4), are then ...

Visualization of the exocyst complex dynamics at the plasma membrane of Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
, 2013 The exocyst complex, an effector of Rho and Rab GTPases, is believed to function as an exocytotic vesicle tether at the plasma membrane before soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex formation.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Development of Artificial Cell Models Using Microfluidic Technology and Synthetic Biology
Micromachines, 2020 Giant lipid vesicles or liposomes are primarily composed of phospholipids and form a lipid bilayer structurally similar to that of the cell membrane. These vesicles, like living cells, are 5–100 μm in diameter and can be easily observed using an optical ...

Importance of Lipid Composition in the Membrane Dynamics of Urothelial Umbrella Cells [PDF]
, 2014 The studies on membrane dynamics in urinary bladder umbrella cells were focused on proteins as important factors for maintaining the permeability barrier and their role as pathways modulators for the discoidal/fusiform endocytic vesicles which is one of ...

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2017 Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are not only intensively studied to increase our fundamental knowledge on their functioning, but also for diagnosis, therapeutics and drug delivery purposes. To improve the current and potential applications of EVs, a fundamental understanding of their stability, structure, and function is crucial.

Reconstitution of autophagosome nucleation defines Atg9 vesicles as seeds for membrane formation
Science, 2020 Reconstituting autophagosome nucleation To stay healthy, our cells must constantly dispose of harmful material. Autophagy, or self-eating, is an important mechanism to ensure the clearance of bulky material.
